Turbo'd DE asking for problems. DO NOT STARVE YOUR ENGINE OF OIL, psychos!

IMHO not rebuilding a USED thrashed motor is also asking for problems, I know from experience.


In the end, things have a way of working themselves out and everything costs the same. You think you're gonna save a bunch of money by doing it one way, and it's rarely the case. That's my .02 but what do i know, I only have a 350hp S14 SR and a fully built car. I don't know what i'm saying.
i agree on the part about buying a long block and building... but how is the engine starved for oil?? lack of piston squirters doesnt fuck with the engine..
